Tag VLAN

1. Summary

You can create VLANs to organize Yamaha switches or Yamaha wireless APs into groups.

1.1. Tagged VLANs can be set for the following agentes.

2. Notes

  • If a switch of a different manufacturer is connected below amanager, the manager will be unable to recognize the correspondingdevice, and the topology will therefore not be displayed. Ifcommunication from the terminal becomes impossible even though the tagVLAN settings are correct, it might be that a switch made by anothermanufacturer which is blocking VLAN tagged frames is connected below the manager.

  • If a Yamaha switch of a model that cannot be determined isconnected below the manager, it might be that the VLAN tagged framescannot pass through that device, depending on the settings of thatdevice.

  • Configurations that include MST instances in the spanning tree are not supported.

3. Tag VLAN page structure

3.1. Button

  • add New button

    Create a new VLAN group.
    In order to join a port to a VLAN group, the VLAN group must first be created.

  • refresh Refresh display button

    Obtain topology information and VLAN settings information, and redraw the tag VLAN group list and the topology.
    Depending on the number of agent units, it may take severalseconds to several tens of seconds for the agent VLAN settingsinformation to be reflected.

3.2. Tag VLAN group list

Display the list of VLAN groups that are registered to the manager,and the list of VLAN groups that the agent ports have joined.
However, the list does not show private VLANs or VLAN groups for which frame forwarding is disabled.
The port color is assigned to each VLAN group.

3.3. Topology

The topology starting at the manager is shown in the lower part of the screen.
By noting the color of the port, you can determine the VLAN group to which it is joined.

4. Make tag VLAN group settings

4.1. Create new

To create a new VLAN group, press the add "New" button.
The following settings can be made.

Item name Description

VLAN-ID

Set the ID of the VLAN.

Name

You can assign a name to the VLAN ID.

After input, press the "OK" button to register the VLAN group.

4.2. 4-2.Change settings

If you want to change the VLAN group settings, press the "Settings" button located in the column at the right of the "Tag VLAN group list".
You can edit the name setting.

4.3. 4-3.Register

If a agent port is joined to a VLAN group that is not registered to a manager, it is shown as an "Unknown" VLAN group in "Tag VLAN group list".
By pressing the "Register" button located in the column at the right of "Tag VLAN group list", you can register a VLAN group to a manager.

4.4. Delete

If you want to delete a VLAN group, press the "Delete" button located in the column at the right of the "Tag VLAN group list".
Then press the "OK" button to delete the settings of the specified VLAN group and also delete the settings of the VLAN group that is applied to the agent.

5. Join a tag VLAN group

To select a agent port within the topology, press the "Select joined port" button button in the right column of "Tag VLAN group list".

The color of the port indicates the setting status of the VLAN group.

The following is a depiction of when the port color is set to

for a VLAN group when selecting the joined ports.

LAN SFP Description

port icon vlan on color 0afad0

port inside sfp icon vlan color 0afad0

This is an access port that is joined to the specified VLAN group.

port icon down

sfp icon down

This is an access port that is joined to the default VLAN group.

port icon vlan on color 039140

port inside sfp icon vlan unselect

This is an access port that is joined to the specified VLAN group.
To determine the joined VLAN group, note the color of the port that is assigned in "Tag VLAN group list".

port icon vlan on color 0afad0 trunk

port inside sfp icon vlan color 0afad0

This is a trunk port or hybrid port. This is joined to the specified VLAN group.

port icon vlan on trunk

port inside sfp icon vlan unselect trunk

This is a trunk port or hybrid port. This is not joined to the specified VLAN group.

When you select a port, the color of the port changes, allowing you to join it to the specified VLAN group.
By re-selecting a port, you can un-join it.
When operating the VLAN join status of the port that belongs to thelogical interface, the same settings will be applied to all portsbelonging to the same logical interface.
After selecting a port, press the "OK" button to apply the setting.

  • If a Yamaha switch of a model that cannot be determined isconnected, it might be that the VLAN tagged frames cannot pass throughthat device, depending on the settings of that device.

  • Automatically joining uplink ports and downlink ports

    If you join a port to a VLAN group, the port that connects fromthe manager to the corresponding agent (uplink/downlink) willautomatically be either a trunk port or a hybrid port.

  • Constraints when joining a VLAN group

    The following constraints apply when making SWX2300 Series,SWX2310 Series, SWX2310P Series, SWR2310 Series, SWR2311P Series,SWX3100 Series, SWX3200 Series, SWX2320 Series, SWX2322P Series, SWX3220 Series settings.

    • If the specified VLAN group is used as a private VLAN by aagent, a port of the corresponding agent cannot be joined to thespecified VLAN group.

    • If a port is specified as a private VLAN’s promiscuous port, or as a host port, settings for that port cannot be made.

    • If a port is used by the link aggregation function, settings for that port cannot be made.(only SWX2300 Series)

      Also, you cannot change the stack port settings for devices in a stack configuration.

6. Show tag VLAN group settings

In "Tag VLAN group list", colors are assigned to the ports for each VLAN group.
By noting the color of a agent port in the topology, you can see the VLAN group to which it is joined.

Examples are shown below.

LAN SFP Description

port icon vlan on color 0afad0

sfp icon vlan color 0afad0

This is an access port that is joined to a VLAN group other than the default VLAN.
To determine the joined VLAN group, note the color of the port that is assigned in "Tag VLAN group list".

port icon vlan on color ffffff

sfp icon vlan color ffffff

This is a trunk port or hybrid port.

port icon down

sfp icon down

This is an access port that is joined to the default VLAN group.

You can also check the tag VLAN group settings from the tool tip that appears when you mouse-over.
The items shown in the tool tip are as follows.

  • Port number

    • For logical interfaces, the logical interface name and thenumbers of all ports belonging to the logical interface will be shown.

    • saX is the name of the logical interface for a static link aggregation.

    • poX is the name of the LACP virtual interface.

  • Port type ( Access, Trunk, Hybrid )

  • VLAN group joined

Supplementary information related to SWX2300 Series, SWX2310 Series,SWX2310P Series, SWR2310 Series, SWR2311P Series, SWX3100 Series,SWX3200 Series, SWX2320 Series, SWX2322P Series, SWX3220 Series settings is shown below.

  • About native VLAN

    The uplink/downlink ports are the trunk ports, and the defaultVLAN is specified as the native VLAN. If the frame received by the trunk port is untagged, the native VLAN is the VLAN group joined by untaggedframes.

  • About promiscuous ports and host ports of a private VLAN

    If the port is specified as a private VLAN’s promiscuous port or a host port, the port type in the tool tip is shown as "Private," and the joined VLAN group is not shown.
